Pros

A good business idea Some very smart people working at the company

Cons

Although the majority of the reviews that NiceJob has on here are positive, my experience was beyond disappointing and I feel that I must share my experiences. Also to note, take the positive reviews with a grain of salt as writing a glass door review is an employee onboarding requirement and new employees are forced to write reviews. I started with NiceJob when the company was only a few people and I worked very closely with both the CEO and the person in charge of Growth. My first negative experience was when I(female) was asked to share a room with my (male) coworker (who I reported to) during a 5 day long convention. I initially agreed thinking that it was to cut company costs but soon after this decision was made, he started acting inappropriately towards me. I felt very uncomfortable about having to share a room with him and after much thought, I decided to confide in the CEO thinking that he would immediately rectify the situation to make me feel more comfortable by getting separate rooms. To my disbelief, I was told by the CEO to essentially “get over it and accept my decision I had made to share the room in the first place”. I was also told to take my “responsibility” in the situation. At this point, I told them upfront that I had never been treated this way or had been put in this situation before. Putting separate genders in the same room together, especially when it’s an employee and a manager had never been a common practice in any place of work I have been in. After they dismissed my request for a separate room, they proceeded to take the costs of the trip out of my bonus and the CEO told me that this is why my bonus was lower than it should have been. At this point, I was utterly shocked and decided to start looking elsewhere for work. There were multiple racial, sexist, and inappropriate remarks made by senior management towards me and others. He took screenshots of my photos on social media and would comment inappropriately on them. I mentioned to him multiple times over the course of my employment that he should be acting more respectfully and consider the feelings of others. He saw this as a joke and the CEO never took serious action on this after it was mentioned multiple times to him as well. Many of the benefits and perks that are advertised are simply for show and not actually implemented such as the benefits. During my employment at NiceJob, they never actually implemented a benefits package even after multiple requests from their employees. Work from home time is also only given after the probation period is over and is micromanaged thereafter. I would highly recommend looking elsewhere for employment.

This review is simply not true. The employee had a personal difference with a another team member, and is trying to take revenge by attacking the team members company. The best way to know the truth about NiceJob is read the reviews by the rest of our team, or come by our office and meet the team in person! The above review does not represent our culture in any way. We're very proud of the diversity of our team which is composed of incredible people, male and female, from many different cultures and countries. The amazing group of people that work at NiceJob are the heart and sole of our company, and we're proud of every one of them. The above reviewer was one of these valued members of our team. We don't engage in mudslinging otherwise we'd respond with the real motivation behind her negative review and the inappropriate actions of this employee. We hope her all the best in her career, she has great talents and hopefully will find the right fit at another company. We will though clarify a few items from the above review that are simply not true though. The sexist remarks in question we took very seriously. Other female members of the team however did not feel they were in any way inappropriate. The racist remarks mentioned in the review were never brought forward to management. Over 50% of our team is from other countries and continents, and our founder spent over 10 years living and volunteering in under developed countries around the world. There is zero basis for this accusation, which we find very disturbing and insulting to all the members of our team. Her performance bonus' was based solely on meeting KPI's, the reviewer missed her KPI's and therefore didn't qualify for these bonus'. We chose to still reward her with a partial bonus despite missing her KPI's. She is correct that her benefits plan was setup 2 months late which we are sorry for, but she was provided a comprehensive benefits plan. Unfortunately, she chose not to provide her information to our insurer to give her coverage. As this employee came to work for a tech company while having no tech experience she required extensive training. Unfortunately, she viewed her training as micro management. Not every company is the right fit for every person. We sincerely hope she finds a fit that helps her fully realize the talents she has, she has the potential to achieve really great things.

Pros

Some great and talented people work at this company.

Cons

The most important takeaways I would like to convey to anyone considering a position at NiceJob, is that the management team has a history of misogynistic tendencies and have treated employees with little respect. Complaints of harassment, including racist remarks, fall on deaf ears, and I would especially like to warn women as myself and others have experienced inappropriate comments and actions. I would strongly urge anyone considering working with NiceJob to think twice and look for other opportunities.

This reviews is blatantly false. The views expressed by the reviewer are not an honest description of NiceJob, rather they are an attack on the company due to a personal difference the reviewer had with a co-worker on her team. Not to mention the reviewer has had a friend also leave this same review, so now their are two reviews on Glassdoor motivated by the same person. 50% of the managers at NiceJob are women, and they've left their honest feedback in many of the other reviews found here at Glassdoor. Our CEO & founder spends over 1000 hours a year volunteer teaching in communities around the world to help those that are less fortunate. Our team consists of amazing men and women from different cultures, countries and backgrounds. We're incredibly proud of every one of them, and together they make NiceJob the company it is. We can't stop Glassdoor from being yet another medium on the internet for the spread of misinformation and lies. But we can point potential new team members to where they can go if they want to learn what kind of company and culture NiceJob truly has. Come to our office and say hi. Talk to the team, it will quickly become apparent what the truth of the matter really is.

Pros

NiceJob is a small company growing fast, so you have a lot of flexibility in what you choose to accomplish and how you do so. The day-to-day is engaging and I'm happy to come into work. At the end of the day, you need to feel inspired not only by the work, but also the people that you work alongside. NiceJob has put together a team that is just as personally supportive as it is professionally driven. I was a new grad at the time of hiring and was given a chance to prove myself and show my worth. If you can demonstrate potential, you will be given room to grow your skills and flourish. Other Pros: - Great benefits package - Competitive salary - Flexible work hours (occasional work from home)

Cons

Because there are a lot of changes and growth, you need to be self motivated and be able to take initiative. No one is going to be breathing down your neck, you need to be a self starter.
